I am not a cricket fan, but I love to watch MS Dhoni (aka Mahi,aka MSD) playing. The way he handles thing, I got to say, he has a style. He is the best wicket keeper in the world. But that is his skill. He has developed it with great practice. The thing I like to watch about him is his ability to handle situations. Not just players, but his critics, media people as well as his professional campaigns like advertisements and stuff. He is really the captain cool.
So being a Mahi fan it is difficult to watch him fail. The season of IPL-2016 isn't very successful for him. Rather it is the worst IPL season for him. And now his Anti-fans are loaded with weapons, they are just non-stop. " He should retire", "He doesn't deserve the captaincy", And many more. Of course he has his strong fan support. But that's not what I'm concerned about. What I want to point out is may be people should understand that cricket is a team sport, and MSD is not one man army.
And there comes my point. We all are part of number of teams. A family. A branch of bank. A unit of industry. A law firm. Many more. And one, even being best, cannot achieve the best for the team if everyone is not equally contributing. People should understand, when they are a part of a team, it's not the captain's duty to win the game, it's everyone's. Of course captain will be blamed for poor performance, because it is his duty to bring the best out. But if your team is losing, check in your contribution before blaming the captain.
Another aspect to this theory, from captain's point of view, is that He should choose the team very carefully. After all he is the one to lead others. So never choose your team just because you know them personally. Rather choose them when you know them professionally. And I believe that it is the only mistake MSD has made. But he will Improvise, he always does. That's what makes him true captain.
